Default Could you help me select a turbo

Hey What up people,

I got a stock LS motor and Im trying to piece together a turbo kit. I want to make 280-300 wheel horsepower While keeping AC. I dont really have the money to make a custom tubular manifold so my mind is set on using a cast manifold from inline pro or something similar. My question to you guys is this Which turbo will..

1.fit with my cast manifold (not hit the block)
2.Still allow me to keep AC
3.Make the power that I want

Any help is appreciated thanks.

You already posted this in LST forum.

50 trim will do well, so will a 57 trim. both with a .63 turbine housing.

if money isnt an issue then a gt28rs wwould work nicely

stage 3 is fine for a 57 or 50 trim. and will keep spool nice

Best thinig to do is call the turbo company and they will help you pick the exact turbo for your application. but get ready to answer questions or you can pm a dealer on here
